There are other, important, fun things happening besides our own 4K hikes....Alex (and I) will post of those things very very soon. Stay tuned. Good things are happening that will hopefully serve the general hiking community. Should be able to post what I am talking about in a week or so.

From time to time, as the girls grow, I will post my own musings on hiking with them now that I am the weak link (they are now stronger and faster than I am), and of their progress on and off the trails. For the most part however, I am purposefully stepping back so our hiking can now be told through the voices of the girls. Kids grow and find their own voices...Mom doesn't need to do the talking for them anymore. A bit bittersweet, but all is as it should be. :)
